BATMAN AND ROBIN
March 23, 2016  | By David Bianculli  | 1 comment

TCM, 9:00 p.m. ET

 

By this 1949 serial, the Caped Crusaders were played by other actors – Robert Lowery as Batman, and Johnny Duncan as Robin. But the changes were ineffective, really: Batman was still too out of shape, and the acting, like the fight sequences, laughably stiff. But it’s still fun to compare it to the brand-new blockbuster hitting theaters, and to other full-length films in the Batman canon. This one even has Bruce Wayne’s love interest Vicki Vale, played by Jane Adams – and a hooded villain called The Wizard.
